Hey Speeddoggy, Thanks for you help, I used the grid but didn't find any way to take measurements, any way I think I got by. Now, how do I transferr to sign cut? my plotter is in the garage on another computer. can I load what I have on a disc and load on the computer in the Garage?? Hey I might get to cut some vinyl today!! Jeff

Thanks, But that's not what I'm trying to do. I want to draw a box (hood of a Truck) with the top line 46.25 inches wide, by 46 inches long (hood sides), by 37 inches long along the bottom (hood front), I just purchased this plotter to cut some vinyl. Haven't got it to work yet. Didn't think it would be so difficult drawing and cutting 4 lines. I have found a way to move the bottom of the rectangle in using the object to path button, but haven't found a way to put in the measurments from point to point yet. Thanks for your response Jeff

using inkscape I want to draw a rectangle box with one end longer then the other. Can't seem to find out how to do that simple task thru inkscape manual. Just trying to draw a hood of a truck. It can't be that difficult. Please help. thanks J

Brand New to it all!! Just purchased my first Plotter and had a question on set up. My plotter will be in the garage, I have an old Gateway Computer I was thinking of using for a dedicated computer for the plotter. It's an Pentium II, 333 MH, with 512 ram, operating with windows 98. would this be OK to operate the plotter and software or would I need something alittle more substantial?

Hey Everyone, New to vinyl cutting, just purchased my first plotter. I'm From N.C., looking to learn from the forum. Glad it's available!!! Jeff
